Lets's calculate LCM of 992,280,451
2 | 992, 280, 451 |
2 | 496, 140, 451 |
2 | 248, 70, 451 |
124, 35, 451 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 124 x 35 x 451 = 15658720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/15658720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 45/992,45/280,150/451 is 15/15658720
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 992,280,451 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(992,280,451) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 8
GCF(992,280,451) x common factors =1 x 8 = 8
LCM(992,280,451) = ( 992 × 280 × 451 ) / 8
LCM(992,280,451) = 125269760 / 8
LCM(992,280,451) = 15658720
